PERIPHERAL SETUP

The WinBIOS Setup options described in this section are selected by choosing the
appropriate high-level icon from the WinBIOS Setup main menu.

The settings are Auto or Manual. When set to Auto, WinBIOS automatically
detects all the peripheral installed in the system and configures the onboard I/O
(serial ports, parallel ports, floppy controllers) automatically. All other
Peripheral Setup option settings are ignored.  Any serial port, parallel port,
floppy controller on an adapter card in an expansion slot is configured before
onboard I/O. If the offboard serial ports are configured to specific starting I/O
ports via jumper settings, WinBIOS configures the onboard serial ports to
avoid conflicts. If Manual is selected, the setting chosen by the end user in
Peripheral Setup apply. WinBIOS reports any I/O conflicts after displaying the
BIOS Configuration Summary Screen, but only if Manual is chosen.

On-Board Floppy Controller (FDC)

This option enables the use of the floppy drive controller on the board. The
settings are Enabled or Disabled

On Board Serial Port 1

IRQ4 is used for the first serial port (COM 1). This option enables the serial
port 1 on the board. The setting are 3E8h.

On Board Serial Port 2

IRQ3 is used for the first serials port (COM 2). This option enables the serial
port 2 on the board. The setting are 2E8h.

IR Duplex Mode  This option specifies the type of duplexing used for infrared on serial port 2. This

option only appears if the Onboard Serial Port2 option is not set to Auto or
Disabled. The settings are Half or Full. There are no default settings.

IR Transmitter  This option specifies the type of transmission used by the infrared devices attached

to serial port 2. This option only appears if the Onboard Serial Port2 option is not
set to Auto or Disabled. The settings are 1.6 uS or 3/16 Baud. There are no default
settings.

IR Mode

This option specifies type of infrared devices supported by the system. This option
only appears if the Onboard Serial Port2 option is not set to Auto or Disabled.
The settings are Encoded or Non-Encoded. There are no default settings.
